This blog documents the preservation of the Brookwood Phone Box.
The kiosk was decommissioned by British Telecom in early 2009, and acquired by the local council to be preserved for the village.
A small team of villagers set about restoring the phone box, and then preserving it for future generations.

Kiosk Secured!

The kiosk is now secure - ish. It's still possible to throw litter in and pee in the kiosk, but now that can only be done so through the missing windows as the door has been locked shut. I'd publish pictures, but it will only compromise security. Suffice to say Unicorn's advice coupled with our own ideas has provided us with a workable solution.

The rain hampered our chances today of finishing off the red oxide priming of the door, however I did clear pretty much the remaining paint on the door, so we'll prime it once the weather allows.

Our target for this coming week, is to complete priming the door, make a complete set of eight large glazing frames, and remove the paint from the additional small glazing frames which Unicorn gave us.
